🌍 Germany · Helles Lager · One of 204 Helles Lagers in hopIQ

A pale full-strength beer brewed at 13.6 °P, which the brewery presents as the revived predecessor of its pilsner, lightly hopped with traditional Hallertau hops. It pours clear, pale gold. The nose is gently grassy with a sweet, floral note reminiscent of violet sweets. The palate is grainy with summer-blossom tones and a mild sweetness, the body fairly slim, and the finish only lightly bitter with a floral hop touch.

◌ Aroma

A delicate floral character leads the nose, with subtle violet-like sweetness layered beneath. Gentle grassy notes emerge alongside a soft noble-hop herbal quality, creating a refined and restrained aromatic profile. The overall impression is one of soft florality rather than aggressive hop presence.

◐ Taste

The palate opens with clean, grainy malt character accompanied by a light sweetness and summer-blossom tones. The body remains fairly slim and elegant, allowing the delicate malt complexity to shine through without weight. Bitterness is mild and emerges only in the mid-palate, balanced by a faint floral hop touch that never overwhelms.
